Description

Send us Fan MailIn Part 2, we explore one of the quieter things time actually does: it distances us from support.As the calls become fewer and the check-ins fade, it may begin to look from the outside like we’re coping… or even moving on. But grief is patient. And when it’s avoided, it waits.Bruce and Kristin talk about the shift that happens after the early shock, from focusing on how our child died to the fear of forgetting how they lived. The sound of their voice. Their smell. Their quirks. The memories that begin to blur with time.They also explore what truly helps:Sitting with grief instead of avoiding itAllowing grief to become a companion rather than an enemyThe intentional work it takes to move from survival toward livingAnd why we can’t go around grief, we have to go through itBecause healing didn’t come from time.It came from doing the work.From brave people willing to sit beside us in the swamp.Grief isn’t linear. It’s layered.And it becomes a teacher...if we’re willing to listen. Support the showHelp keep the Don’t Forget To Breathe podcast going.
